52 Using Phone Features
To find a contact name
You can just enter the first letter of a contact’s first name or surname. Smart
Dialing will search for the letter starting from the first character of a contact
name as well as from the character that appears after a space, dash, or
underscore in a contact name. For example, if you tap number “2” which is
associated with [a, b, c] on the Phone keypad, contact names such as the
following will be considered matches: “Ben Miller”, “George Adams”, “John-
Carter”, “Carter, Ellen”, “Dixon, Allan”, “Thomas_Clark”, “JaneCampbell”.
If the matching list is long and you want to narrow down the search further,
enter another letter. Using the same example above, if you continue to
tap “3” which is associated with [d, e, f], the matching list will be narrowed
down to the following names: “
Ben Miller”, “George Adams”, “Carter, Ellen”,
“Dixon, Allan”.
